No matter where you're from waterfalls are the focal points that draw people to nature. Here in Western North Carolina many visitors hike well worn trails to Pearson Falls, Triple Falls, Hooker Falls and many other popular area waterfalls.

It's not hard to wonder what the attraction to these beautiful, mesmerizing waterfalls is. The fact that you can observe so much water closely and vividly. Perpetual motion fueled by nothing other than gravity and rain. It is also said that waterfalls make people feel good because they generate negative ions (negatively charged air molecules created by a number of natural and electronic processes). Another great attribute is the soothing "white noise," a sound that engineers try to imitate for electronic gadgets that are designed to help you relax, concentrate or sleep.
